    CSA Produce Membership
    If you are looking for fresh, local produce and regular CSA produce boxes at Great Country Farmson farm adventures, then CSA membership is for you!
    We pick, pack and deliver produce weekly from June to October to your home or office.  Or you can pick up at the farm for additional savings.
     
    Each week's box contains a fresh harvest of seasonal The Moret Family U-picking Potatoes at Great Country Farmsproduce and varies from week to week.  Our  Produce List will give you an idea of what we plan to deliver  and our weekly Crop Talk Newsletter will keep you informed of what is in your delivery box, our U-pick Bonus Value for the week and all the news and events at the farm. 
    So this season, let us do the growing and picking.         Know Greenhouse lettuce at Great Country Farmsthat your produce is grown with minimal chemicals or none at all and sustainable growing practices.  We are NOT a certified organic farm but feed our own family daily from the farm so care very much how our produce is grown.  In 2009, we grew our CSA garden with out adding any synthetic, chemical fertilizers or herbicides and are adding worm culivation for 2010 fertilizing. We are constanting researching and implementing steps to use only sustainable growing practices to care for the land with which we have been blessed.

    At Great Country Farms, CSA membership is so much U-pick Blackberries at Great Country Farmsmore than a weekly produce box.  Our farm is truly a family destination for fun on the farm with a barnyard full of animals to visit, hayrides to our u-pick fields, mazes, tractors to climb on, swings, slides and catch & release fishing in our stocked pond.   All the benefits of Fan of the Farm Membership above are part of our CSA Membership program as well.  So get the kids off the couch this summer and outside picking and playing on the farm.
     
    As a special value, CSA members get first priority on Hayride to u-pick at Great Country Farmsall U-Pick items at Great Country Farms with a weekly u-pick Bonus available at no additional charge.  There is a limit on the amount of u-pick included with a CSA share so check our Produce List for planned U-pick Bonus amounts. Our hayrides run regularly to take you to the fields for picking.
